It was fat and wide so to me it indicated that it might be a female due to pregnancy. It was also at least 2.5 inches long. It was found under a rock near an oak tree. It had a brown stinger and had bright whitish, yellowish color. It had two pincers that were medium size. It ran off really quickly to hid under a stone and then bury itself.

"The scorpion was found under a rock in an oak forest. The scorpion has yellow legs and has three ""joints"". The body of the scorpion is light blue and purple. The pinchers and the tail of the scorpion are dark blue/black. The scorpion is very large, which indicates that it may be pregnant. The scorpion is over 4 inches in length. When it was removed from the rock the scorpion tensed up and stayed still (possibly a defensive position)."

The Naturalist Michael was doing a presentation at the campground I was at so I decided to take a look. This was one of his exhibits. I believe this was wild caught. Very cool though.
